Beschrijving

In 2015 creëerden we de eerste privé Joodse tour in Évora en sindsdien hebben we het Joodse erfgoed van Évora aan tientallen bezoekers van over de hele wereld voorgesteld. Wat wij voorstellen is een bezoek aan Évora gebaseerd op de geschiedenis van de Joden in Évora en in Portugal. In deze privétour zullen we praten over de Joodse cultuur, de oude Joodse wijk van Évora bezoeken met zijn oude huizen met tekens van mezouzah, we zullen de waarschijnlijke plaatsen van de oude middeleeuwse synagogen van Évora laten zien, we zullen de route kennen die de oude slachtoffers van intolerantie maakten tussen de gevangenissen en de plaats waar ze in de vlammen werden gedood door de Inquisitie. Bespreek met onze Gids de Joodse verwijzingen in de middeleeuwse straten en begrijp de manier van denken van het meest radicale katholicisme in de periode van de contrareformatie door een bezoek te brengen aan de Kapel van Beenderen.

Excellent historical tour of Evora and its Jewish community

Joao was a font of knowledge both about the history and its surroundings as well the Jewish community that lived here. He took us to things we’ve never seen before, recommended local restaurants and a wonderful side trip to Monsaraz. Would highly recommend him!

Wonderful tour with Elsa

We had a great 3 hour tour with Elsa. We saw all the highlights in Evora, and also learned about the history of the Jews and the Inquisition in Evora. Elsa was very knowledgeable; she has a degree in history. She was great at sharing information, set a good pace and was a pleasure to be with. I highly recommend her.

Wonderful Walk around Évora

This tour was a superb introduction to some of the highlights of the beautiful city of Évora and its history (spotlighting the Jewish aspects). Paulo was incredibly knowledgeable and talked about the long history of Portugal and Évora in an engaging manner. We saw many interesting sites, including the Roman Temple, the Cathedral and the Chapel of Bones along with a walk through the old Jewish quarter and evidence of the rich history that Évora has. Little signs like hamsa door handles and spaces where mezuzahs used to be hint at who lived there and what happened, along with the sad stories of forced conversion and the Portuguese Inquisition. We would thoroughly recommend this tour for anyone with an interest in history and who wants to know more of Évora’s story.

Évora Jewish history tour with 5% of Jewish emphasis.

Our guide was fantastic. But we thought we would be seeing much more of the Jewish history. The Jewish quarter was bypassed by guide who said there was not much to see. This experience needs to be eliminated as advertised or renamed to better reflect what the tourist will be seeing and learning about

Good afternoon, Arthur We are sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations, contrary to what has been the norm, with all our previous customers praising the tour for its focus on the history of Jews in Portugal. This tour focuses much more on the intangible heritage and Jewish heritage in Portuguese culture than on the tangible heritage, which only exists in the Inquisition Palace (which you visited) and the Jewish quarter, which, due to the heat and according to the guide, your group decided to skip. The guide informed me that of the six people in your group, he realized that some were not Jewish and, as such, he tried to make the tour more comprehensive and inclusive, in accordance with the request of your companions. Even so, during the tour, there was no shortage of conversations about Jewish culture in Portugal and Jewish figures in Portuguese history, with architectural references to Jewish culture in the cathedral of Évora and the spirit of religious intolerance that prevailed during the Counter-Reformation when you visited the Chapel of Bones. In fact, we were surprised by your review because throughout the tour and at the end of the tour, you always told the guide that you were satisfied. We do not believe that we engage in misleading advertising, as you suggest, because the tour is always based on the intangible heritage of Jewish culture in Portuguese culture throughout history and includes several references to the history of Évora, with visits to the few monuments that exist in Évora directly related to the Jews who have lived in this city throughout history. It should be noted that at the end of the tour, the guide took you to the bus station, which was not planned, for your comfort and safety, because he felt that your group was already showing signs of fatigue and he did not want you to get lost or confused along the way, preferring to take you by the most direct route. The decision not to insist on visiting the Jewish quarter was due to the fact that some of you had expressed a desire to skip it, as well as the group's limited mobility and the intense heat. To compensate, he added an extra visit to the painted houses, which is not included in this tour. At the end of the tour, the guide said that many members of the group said goodbye to him with hugs, which, according to the guide, meant that they really enjoyed the tour. The excellent reviews from our previous customers show that we do not engage in misleading advertising and that we have exceeded our customers' expectations. Unfortunately, we were unable to exceed yours, which we regret. Best regards and best wishes to you and your companions.

Great Jewish experience tour in Évora

We had an amazing experience touring Evora learning about the Jewish history dating back hundreds of years ago. We also learned all about the contributions that the Jewish community provided to Portugal (including royal families) as well as other countries overseas. Very knowledgeable tour guide with a passion for history.
